DTVC Extra 35, The Die Hard Franchise, "Die Hard," "Die Hard II," and "Die Hard with a Vengeance"

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're starting our look at the Die Hard Franchise with "Die Hard," "Die Hard II," and "Die Hard with a Vengeance." For the first one, I look at who Bruce Willis was as a star before the film and how this shot him to stardom, why this is such a classic, and answer the question on whether or not it's a Christmas movie. For the second one, I get into why I like it, but also why I think it's a great action movie, but not a classic. Finally, for the third one, I get into why there was a delay between this and part 2, and why it was a departure from the first two.
